South China Sharks

About the South China Sharks

The South China Sharks joined the CIHL as the only team to be representing the increasingly winter sports-mad Mainland China. Fast, energetic, yet stealthy and clever, the Sharks are always looking to take a bite out of the competition.

The Scotiabank South China Sharks look to bounce back after a disappointing 2016-2017 campaign. Led by the dynamic scoring duo of Jordan So and Brad Holman, the Sharks are hungry for a return to championship form.
